Answer:

The answer is eight.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that x is eight. That means we can plug eight in for x. If we do that we get 2^8-5. 8-5 is three, so our problem becomes 2^3, which is 8.

The slope of the line tangent to the curve y^2 + (xy+1)^3 = 0 at (2, -1) is ...?

Lina20 [59]

$\frac{d}{dx}(y^2 + (xy+1)^3 = 0)
\\
\\\frac{d}{dx}y^2 + \frac{d}{dx}(xy+1)^3 = \frac{d}{dx}0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \frac{d}{dx}(xy+1)\ *3(xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(\frac{d}{dx}(xy)+\frac{d}{dx}1\right)\ * 3(xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(\frac{d}{dx}xy+x\frac{d}{dx}y+\frac{dx}{dx}\right)\ * 3(xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(\frac{dx}{dx}y+x\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{dx}{dx}0\right)\ * 3(xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(y+x\frac{dy}{dx}\right)\ * 3(xy+1)^2 = 0$
$\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(y+x\frac{dy}{dx}\right)\ * 3(xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\\frac{dy}{dx}2y + \left(3y+3x\frac{dy}{dx}\right) (xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\2y\ y' + \left(3y+3x\ y'\right) (xy+1)^2 = 0
\\
\\2y\ y' + \left(3y+3x\ y'\right) ((xy)^2+2xy+1) = 0
\\
\\2y\ y' + \left(3y+3x\ y'\right) ((xy)^2+2xy+1) = 0
\\
\\2y\ y' + 3x^2y^3 +6xy^2+3y+(3x y' +6x^2y y'+3x^2y y') = 0
\\
\\3x^2y^3 +6xy^2+3y+(3x y' +6x^2y y'+3x^2y y'+2yy' ) = 0
\\
\\y'(3x +6x^2y+3x^2y+2y ) = -3x^2y^3 -6xy^2-3y

$
$y' = \frac{-3x^2y^3 -6xy^2-3y}{(3x +6x^2y+3x^2y+2y )};\ x=2,y=-1
\\
\\y' = \frac{-3(2)^2(-1)^3 -6(2)(-1)^2-3(-1)}{(3(2) +6(2)^2(-1)+3(2)^2(-1)+2(-1) )}
\\
\\y' = \frac{-3(4)(-1) -6(2)(1)+3}{(6 +6(4)(-1)+3(4)(-1)-2 )}
\\
\\y' = \frac{12 -12+3}{(6 -24-12-2 )}
\\
\\y' = \frac{3}{( -32 )}$
